The dream of their first state lacrosse title were dashed for the Blue Streaks after a semifinal 9-4 loss to Bishop Shanahan.

The Blue Streaks led 2-1 after one quarter on Tuesday.

A big key to Bishop Shanahan’s 9-4 win Tuesday in the PIAA 3A girls’ lacrosse state semifinal at Cocalico High School was a rock-solid defense that shut out District 3 champion Manheim Township for the entire second and third quarters.

This is the second year in a row that MTHS was eliminated in the PIAA State Lacrosse tournament.

VIDEO HIGHLIGHTS WILL BE POSTED LATER TODAY.

It was quite a season for Township.
